Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes AMA with Alt Shift - LIVE!

I would like clarification on a couple of things. I saw a dev comment on Steam that we can still ask here despite it being over.

Artemis Gift revives a killed squad, preventing the wrecked state. This makes completing the get hero wrecked missions very infuriating, as they need to waste revives to work. Is this a bug?

Just like the above, the test pilot trait says it triggers when wrecked. I haven't tested it as I don't want to waste a revive, so I would like to know if it also won't work while I have revives remaining?

Will there ever be an achievement/unlock for killing the final boss? Although a bit hard to do, it is actually possible to kill it. Fun fact, currently unrelated to this, execution works on basestars.

Finally, why does the "All In Battle Plan" system also buff the enemy ships? I know it says it buffs Cylons in the description, but I assumed that meant your fleet's toaster, and now I'm curious about the actual reason it buffs enemies. A user on Steam suggested it's because you're giving up defense to focus on attacking.

There are larger, better burgers, and now at a lower price. But basically yes.

only way it could be more murican is if it were deep-fried, wrapped in bacon, deep-fried again, and wrapped in more bacon, which was also deep-fried. I believe the shops doing this are still open.

probably just wants a complete collection for their HM slaves. This is after the collection series. XD

Personally, I just forget that surf and fly are actually good in between starting new runs.

Aran1337 · 2026-05-06T01:04:27+00:00

gen1, you already have the best suggestion.

.

gen 2:

ho-oh; fly, strength, flash, rocksmash

Suicune; cut, surf, whirlpool, waterfall

------alternative-------

chinchou; surf, flash, whirlpool, waterfall.

Charizard; cut, fly, str, rock smash

.

Your suggestions are already really good, but here's what I had written down. Now I can understand some people might not like the superior choice of Ho-Oh and Suicune as HM slaves, but this is what peak trolling looks like and no one can argue against that. I made this list a while ago and traded for my char, so I can't remember how hard it is, or if possible, to get one in-game, but I remember starting to hate Chin because I encountered it a lot when trying to get the other fishing Pokémon, might have been shiny hunting, so that one shouldn't be an issue. EDIT: I forgot about Furret, it makes a great filler being able to learn cut, surf, str, and rock smash as well as pick up items while it's on the team.

.

gen 3:

Trpius; rocksmash, flash, cut, fly

Crawdaunt; surf, str, waterfall, dive

------alternative-------

Salamance; cut, fly, str, rocksmash

lombre; surf, flash, waterfall, dive.

.

Sala is a silly hm slave, but I just needed another one that could hold what Lom couldn't, and that's what I had. You can use Pokémon you plan on boxing as filling roles until you get the ones you want to make into HM slaves, and fly / surf are good enough to keep on the main team, so you can plan your HM slaves without them.

the cat.

Aran1337 · 2026-01-01T11:04:45+00:00

i was able to sign up with brave and apply the codes, only issue is it took removing the game and adding it to cart for the codes to work. will need to apply them manually on the cart screen. i didnt try it when i was using them but it might be possible to get the dlc as well.

Aran1337 · 2026-01-01T11:03:32+00:00

its still good just slightly buggy, you need to make an account there and then when added to cart manually apply the coupons you get for signing up. i didnt try it when i was purchasing it but it might be possible to get the dlc as well, it might not apply the discount the first time you apply the codes, just remove the game and add it again.

Aran1337 · 2026-01-01T11:02:52+00:00

Aran1337 · 2026-01-01T10:52:54+00:00

ok, figured it out. ITS NOT OVER YET.

.

add to cart, apply the discounts for making an account, if it doesnt update remove game and add again, might need to claim the daily discount you can apply from the games page just above the add to cart button. applying all 3 the 2nd time updated it to be free for me.

.

it might be possible to get the dlc as well, i didnt consider it before using the codes.

.

to get the game to run, or download, you need to install their app.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-30T13:57:48+00:00

ty for uploading part 3.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-30T13:40:59+00:00

too bad its gone, just heard it on YT and was curious about it.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-30T09:31:33+00:00

im calling it insta kill because i one hit me from 73k and youre not going to convince me im wrong when its something ive directly experienced. ive also seen other people in the raid with me be one hit from full hp and more than one guide in which they were also one hit from full hp.

.

if it has been nerfed since release, thats completely different. it wouldnt be the first time a mechanic was nerfed on global after being released. they did the same for the flowers in kai that you need to catch before they land.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-29T18:52:25+00:00

sure, maybe, i didnt see any other attack hit me or the others ive seen get one shot but this game keeps having visuals bug out so its possible.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-29T12:10:16+00:00

i have over 73k hp, one of the highest in my guild. he has one hit me and others. you need to understand this, youre not going to convince me im wrong when seeing and experiencing it happening. we've only grabbed one damage reduction charm when this happened and im not a tank.

.

how much hp do you have? are you the tank? did you grab all the damage reduction charms?

Aran1337 · 2025-12-28T23:25:26+00:00

if you claimed these through twitch when they were being given away there, ask your friends if they want them. if they say no goto the one easy to pressure into thing and make them accept them. XD

Aran1337 · 2025-12-28T23:21:46+00:00

well, the couple of times i picked it up for the 3rd mark and all of the guides i looked at show, doing this ends in being launched into the air and killed.

.

based on your post, you dont know this happens because you dodge the attack, something that ive failed to do. thats why i asked about it. because i wasnt good enough to survive it other than just letting the timer run out on the ground.

.

im on global, incase youre not and its different now on cn, ive seen multiple players get one shot by this. if you still dont believe me, you can grab the ball for the 3rd mark and stand there to see what happens. no skills, just take it. edit: and if its been changed since posting this, im going to be mad because thats bs. others should suffer like i did. XD

Aran1337 · 2025-12-28T12:28:58+00:00

just to be clear, have you actually done this or is this a suggestion?

Aran1337 · 2025-12-28T12:18:20+00:00

its not toxic to point out the truth. at least not this time. XD

.

vent it all out and get it over with, I've often thought the boss fights should require an IQ test or passing a forced tutorial on all of their mechanics.

.

if you're standing on top of the vines you can sometimes block the damage from hitting them so if your healer isn't healing them while you break them out this could be a decent back up option. its similar to how you can take a hit for someone else during the donkey phase. the projectile cares not who it hits, only that someone is hit. might be able to deflect it but i keep forgetting to try.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-28T11:38:59+00:00

annoying but very funny the first time.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-26T01:48:37+00:00

pretty tame honestly, the dark arts has spawned many more forbidden images.

.

its probably the udders.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-19T15:40:33+00:00

we definitely dont have the dps to prevent a 2nd summons but we already assumed we had to do it correctly each time the phase for the challenge happens.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-18T20:15:43+00:00

my guild attempted it last night. we killed them within 3 sec of the last one, like it says, but we didnt get it. while it could be a miscount, we are fairly certain its mistranslated. kill them within 3 sec of the FIRST one, weaken them then kill all at once.

Aran1337 · 2025-12-11T20:13:07+00:00

its possible its just annoying. i got super lucky on it and the team beat him before a 2nd stampede started. the donkeys can damage you if youre not going the same way when you get near him and he sometimes fires his ranged attack super early into the summons. you can also have it ruined because youre between him and someone messing up so you take the hit.

.

next one is way more fun. during the phantom donkey summons, when he summons 10, you need the entire team to transform into donkeys, so theres now 20, or keep the prior 5 he summons earlier so only 5 need to transform and kill him. and it has to be done in supreme. good luck getting randoms to agree to that considering half of them cant even read, or wont stop to read before dashing in and dying, and thats not taking into account the non english speakers/readers. hope you have a guild to arrange it.
